What is the Wash Sale Rule for alternating long and short positions?
Dec 18, 2009 by Brandyn | Posted in United States
Say I execute the following transactions:
Day 1: Buy to open 100 XYZ
Day 2: Sell to close 100 XYZ
Day 3: Sell to open 100 XYZ (short sale)
Day 4: Buy to close 100 XYZ (cover short sale)
Day 5: Buy to open 100
Dear B: Wash sales rules only apply to a sale at a loss within 30 days of buy.
Therefore the only wash sale would be #2 and #3 (when closed on day 3).

Is there a fixed time period for short sale (of securities) to be covered ?
Sep 02, 2009 by Michael | Posted in Other - Business & Finance
I read about a T+3 (trade+ 3 days) to settle transactions, going long (payment), going short (securities).
Was this an old rule to naked short sales vs. legitimate borrowed short sales ?
I've never came into
I've had short sales for several months so there is no time period. You are responsible for dividends when those come up.

Not in a hurry to buy a house but did see one that fits our needs and it is listed as short sale potential. If we were to make an offer, bank needs to approve it (from what i understand). We would like to low ball and offer 75% of asking price with
Why waste peoples time and all that paper?
The general rule is you need to offer 85-90% of the FMV of the home, which very well could be over the asking price.

Securing an FHA Mortgage After a Short Sale
18.05.12
In recent years, many borrowers have opted to negotiate a short sale with their lender in lieu of foreclosure of the property. A short sale occurs when the property is sold for less than what is owed on the existing mortgage. At some point after this happens, borrowers are often in a better position to purchase another home. In these cases, know that securing an FHA mortgage after a short sale comes with guidelines and specific procedures that must be followed by the lender.
According to FHA, any borrower who took a short sale agreement on a principal residence in order to take advantage of the declining real estate market, and is seeking to purchase a similar or better property at a reduced price that is within a reasonable commuting distance, is not eligible for an FHA mortgage. In order to be eligible for an FHA mortgage, the borrower must have been current with the mortgage and other installment debts when the short sale took place on their previously owned property. Mortgage payments on the previous mortgage and installment debt payments must have been made on time for a period of twelve months prior to the short sale. The proceeds from the short sale then served as payment in full of their mortgage debt.
